Not All In This Together

Otherworldly omnipotence,
Honor the dead effigy,
I have to say I'm sorry,
To earn a spot in Heaven,
Grimaced at the thought,

Apologies to enemies,
Who I never help create,
My truest mistake,
To be paid in death threats,
Piecing the peace obtained,

Too far gone,
Sometimes we like to go that way,
Panic at the frayed human existence,
Snapped back to the animalistic,
I pardon the patience you've exhumed,

Singing songs why can't we get along,
Asking me on the front line of my war,
Are you fucking crazy,
Drowning in mucus,
Doesn't sound so bad now,

Gasping for anything not so complete,
Doomed like the high levels of tetris,
An enemy of an enemy,
Is still an enemy to me,
Back to the old drawing board,

Chalk it up as a loss God,
Children of the lost cause,
Robbing the blind,
To pay my drug dealer,
Remember to pray for me,

On the carousel of cruelty,
A cog in the machine,
An anomaly of the system,
Attempting to correct itself,
All hail our virus lords,

All in this together,
Except in a literal sense,
Afraid to hack it alone,
Not knowing the other side,
Terrorized into believing.
